DVD Box Sets.

[Spider]

These men speak sense.

Should I part with £35 of my hard earned smackers for the Pacific on Blu Ray?

No, because it's only £30 in Sainsburys!

Anyone suggested The West Wing yet?

 

[strings]

No, because it's only £30 in Sainsburys!

Ta, is it any good?

 

[Publius Ovidius]

band of brothers is around £15 box set in sainsburys at the moment.

I am looking at this:

and

 

[Wilko]

Mad Men, absolutely BRILLIANT.

 

[tonymgc]

I'd agree with most of whats already been suggested & add to it The Pacific & Series 2 onwards of The Office:An American Workplace. First series is just the first of Gervais's one with American actors

 

[Prettyboyshaw]

Not that I like to goggle box much, but....

The Wire
Deadwood
The Sopranos
Dexter
Underbelly
Brotherhood
Sons of Anarchy
Justified
Band of Brothers
Rome

All excellent...and try downloading Boardwalk Empire which is a new HBO series...brilliant

 

[Mellotron]

Oh also - best sketch show ever;

Big Train.

 

[humpy]

spartacus is a good watch as well

 

[griff9]

Breaking Bad is fuggin brilliant.

yeh mate agreed, didn't think anyone on here would know of this but either way its quality

[les dynam]

The Wire and The Sopranos

is the correct answer. don't bother with anything else.

but having said that, rather enjoying both the UK and swedish versions of wallender at the moment.

 

[Skaville]

Just bought the entire Sopranos for £55. Looking forward to this. Anyone seen Underbelly?

Cannot recommend The Wire enough. Loved the first few 24's and Mad Men is a good watch.

 

[Lush]

This is lovely. I enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Now ploughing through this:

 

[Jam The Man]

This is lovely. I enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Quality TV

[Billy the Fish]

Obvious choices are the Sopranos and The Wire- both must see TV.

Less obvious choices - for a bit of comedy try Entourage, very easy to watch and can be hilarious. For some dark comedy/drama try Dexter.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Ta, is it any good?

I wasn't impressed, and I watched it in HD. B.O.B is far superior in my eyes.

 

[Evil Edna]

Lost

First season was good then turned to shit! wasted six years of my life with that.

Breaking Bad is fuggin brilliant.

Love this! One of the best things I have watched in a long time and looking forward to next season.

I would add Dexter to this list as well but not that into season five atm.

Boardwalk Empire has just started, that's worth getting into, been written by the guy who wrote sopranos.

Why buy? just d/load this shit like everyone else!

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Seinfeld (series 1-8, particularly 4 onwards)
30 Rock (series 1-3)
Curb Your Enthusiasm
24
Life on Mars

About to see what I've been missing with The West Wing ...
